Pizza, Pizza and more Pizza

Ahhh can’t wait for our little pizza party tonight. Our friend’s mom is still here from Portugal and loves pizza. I guess they don’t have good pizza there. So, Spiro and I invited them over to join us for pizza. I made my dough yesterday. I used my traditional recipe and found a no knead recipe that I tried too. It’s out of a book by Jeff Hertzberg MD and Zoe Francois. It’s called Artisan Pizza and Flatbread in Five minutes a Day. I can’t wait for the whole book to come in. I’ll have to let you know how I like the recipe. There will be five of us. I made enough dough for 10 to 12 individual pizzas. What do you think? So far here’s what I’ve got for toppings.

Sliced mushrooms, sliced black olives, sliced red bell peppers, sliced onions, sautéed onions, homemade buffalo chicken tenders (no batter, not fried), garlic chicken tenders, grilled chicken sausage, sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, roasted garlic, broccoli, sliced potatoes, turkey bacon, chives, (fat-free) ricotta cheese for a white pizza, six cheese Italian blend, shredded mozzarella, fresh shredded Asiago, and fresh shredded parmesan. Do you think I missed anything? lol Ohhh can’t wait. I’ll share the photos with you as soon as I put the pizza’s together. Ok, time to roll out the dough so it can poof up a little more before they get here. Dinner at 5:00. (Spiro’s out getting more gas for the grill as we speak lol).

I had been making pizza on our gas grill (found a book with ideas) and then the grill broke. We have been grilling on our charcoal grill so I haven’t made any pizza’s lately. I know how difficult it is to get an even temp for the pizza. Now you have me wanting to get that gas grill even though Winter is soon upon us.

We had the honor of trying these at Lisa’s last weekend and I have to say, if you haven’t tried this yet it is an absolute must do…. the dough was perfecto and I personally would prefer doing this than ordering from any pizza place!!! So many things you can try to create and the grilling, wow!

Awww thank you Sue. We do love making them at home. I can control the ingredients. It’s nice to be able to put whatever you want on it. And ya, the key to the dough is the flour. Regular flour or bread flour just doesn’t taste the same. Glad you got to taste it, now I want to see you making pizza. 🙂Lisa Magoulas recently posted…Getting It Done

That looks scrumptious… Will you come over to my house and fix that for me? Oh better yet, I’ll give all your recipes to my neighbor, who also happens to be my best friend, and have him fix them for me. I think he would do a much better job.

To my Lovely wife Lisa who can cook a mean pizza on the grill. Ever since she started making her own dough, adding the toppings, and cooking it on the grill, there is no other!! The flavor is AMAZING!!!! Great job Sweetie!!!
